No Greinke? Twins sweep.

Don't let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game.
Not sure what's gotten into the Royals this season. They took 2 of 3 in Minnesota and now the first of this series 4-2. Blackburn wasn't bad tonight, Hochevar looked pretty wild early and the Twins hitters couldn't capitalize. Lots of runners left on base early.
Hope the bats wake up tomorrow.

Twins win 2-1. Baker did not have good stuff tonight, but somehow he managed to get through. His strike/ball ratio was about 2-1, so it's not like he was all over the place. He had a lot of 3 ball counts and guys were fouling him off left and right.
Morneau hits a monster dongo to right center, up into the top of the fountain.

Not as long as his best in that ballpark. He cleared the fountain with one a few years ago.
Keppel looks like he might be pretty good. Another 2+ innings without allowing a run tonight.

The Twins took another series on the road, winning today's game 5-1 behind Mauer's 3/3 day and Cuddyer's homer and 2 RBI. Perkins looked pretty decent allowing 10 hits in 7 innings, walking none and striking out 1. He had 19 groundball outs and 6 flyball outs today, which is pretty good for him. He was keeping the ball down and letting the defense play behind him.
Not a bad way to end the Missouri trip -- 4-2.

Good stuff, they finished the road trip 6-3, which is surprising for a team who has struggled to win on the road all year.

Too bad the Twins couldn't have swept the Royals, but the Royals aren't a bad team. They get the White Sox next (4-4 head-to-head) and the Tigers come to the Dome.

Yeah it would have been nice, but hey, I'll take 6-3 road trip anytime!
